It's been about 3½ months since stable branches of both projects were
released (synchronously, in early January).  Could be time within the
next month or so for a new stable release.  Is there anything you'd
like to get in before then, or conversely any large changes that
should wait until after?

----

For me, but none of them are urgent before this release:

Proposed nbdkit-forward-filter which ensures that we only do forward
reads over the plugin.

nbdkit-readahead-filter fix/replacement.  Requires background threads,
this may be possible already.

Rich.
